Minotaur, the creature with the head of a bull

Minotaur was created by Pasiphae, the wife of King Minos, when she mated with a bull that was sent to her by god Poseidon. King Minos,according to a myth, after a prophecy he received from the Oracle of Delphi, asked the craftsman Daedalus to create a building inside of which the Minotaur would be enclosed. So Daedalus built the Labyrinth,a colossal palace which was impossible to navigate.
